Re: 4.0.3 doesn't build on MacOS X

Sebastian,

I was building using trace mode under Yosemite. 

However, the dependency on zlib was specified, and thus zlib was found by configure, but the library was not found at link time in the libinterp directory.

I got the build bots to cleanly build from Snow Leopard on up.

For chuckles: El Capitan wins within 7001 warnings, while Snow Leopard has the fewest with 1361.

Do you build with —without-z?

Under MacPorts I had to patch libinterp/Makefile.in to add Z_LIB, in order to avoid symbol not found issues for libz:

Marius’ patch works for me.

Strange; I do not need this patch and I am not building "--without-zlib". Are we talking about OS X 10.11.5? I have

ls /usr/lib/libz.?.?.?.dylib

/usr/lib/libz.1.1.3.dylib
/usr/lib/libz.1.2.5.dylib

I will try to apply the patch and see if anything changes...
